Picked this up today in a small, truly out of the woodwork collection, thought I'd share as it is a lovely piece I have not seen before.
A hunting/nature theme includes a rifle, elk, leaves, acorns and Edelweiss. No markings at all, I rather think that this is likely a privately produced work with a very limited run, probably meant for souvenir hunters of the era, paying homage to AH.
If anyone has any info on this little beauty, please share.

This is similar to pins sold in all the alpine vacation spots in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland in the 1960's. Tourist would pin them on green hats.

True, nothing to suggest that this is necessarily TR era.
